Entries for November 2018

November 2nd and 3rd, the 12U Tier 1 Lady Islanders team participated in Fire on Ice in upstate NY- the largest girls tournament in the country.  

The team played a strong first game against the Cleveland Lady Barrons winning 3-0.  The second game of the tournament 12U Tier 1 played against the Nepean Wildcats who are ranked #2 in Canada in the 12U Tier 1 age bracket.  The team battled hard and although losing 1-3 managed to score on a goalie who has only let in 2 goals so far this season.  On Saturday the first game against the Stoney Creek Sabres, ranked #1 in Canada, came down to an overtime shootout which the Lady Islanders won in a final 2-1.  Wrapping up on Saturday at the tournament the team took on Assabet Valley (#3 in USA).  The game ended in a tie and the Lady Islanders lost in a 6 round shootout 1-2.  

Despite not advancing to the semi-finals, the team had a successful 2-2 record in a very competitive bracket against top level teams in both Canada and the USA and look forward to returning next year’s Fire on Ice tournament.
